Our stay in Carlo's apartment was more than what we expected: comfortable, nicely decorated, well equipped and very, very CLEAN!
It is well situated in the city: 30 mins by bus to the heart of Milan. As for Carlo, we did not get a chance to meet him but he was kindly available and quick to respond for any advice we needed, which was greatly appreciated. Furthermore, the custodian was very welcoming and helpful.
We could not have asked for a better accommodation!

Carlo's apartment was superb in Milan. It's in a great quiet location, with a short walk to the canals and bars. Check in was super easy. The apartment itself is great, really cosy yet spacious. Highly recommend!

Carlo is a very good host. I personally didn't meet him but the communication was easy and effective via private messages. I found the apartment very clean, comfortable and with a cozy ambience. I highly recommend this host and this house.

Summary: I wouldn't stay at Carlo's place again. The flat was fine, clean and as described but Carlo was not accessible and we had to wait for the caretaker of the apt to let us in. The flat was also a little out of the way.
The Good: The apt was clean and as described. It was located in the Barona Neighborhood, near bus stops and metro stations. It was in within walking distance to everything you needed.
The Bad: We never met Carlo in person and was only accessible via text/calls (not email, at least w/o a lengthy delay) which which was impossible for us since we were travelling from the States and did not have an international calling plan i.e. we could send emails but no texts/calls. A caretaker arrived after we did to let us in to the apt and show us around.
We actually had two separate stays at Carlo's place, on the way in, and on the way out of Milan. On the way out we had arranged to arrive at 9 PM. No one was there to let us in and I couldn't get a hold of Carlo due to the above mentioned contact method. When he did reply (via airbnb) which sends texts to the host and he could receive in real time, his responses were outright rude. He stated that he told me to contact him via text or call (even though I repeatedly made it known to him I wouldnt be able to) and that to "remember Airbnb is not a hotel and there is no reception" while we waited in the hallway of his building for a half hour for the caretaker to arrive to let us in. Not how you want to spend your time when on vacation.

My feedback.
Luca was a good host , even if did not respect some rules as to inform me arrival with a message on my personal phone number . he sent two email but unfortunately I had no phone reception and then had to wait 20 minutu the arrival of the keeper . The second time he came back again I was not notified by message and pretended that I was there waiting for him without warning . We must understand that airbnb is based on communication and you do not go in Hotel reception with 24h . The day of his departure was scheduled strike of public transport and to this I booked a taxi but then the day before first asked me to cancel the reservation .
Dear Luke ,
if you travel around the world agree that you tell if your phone can make calls or send messages in other countries . I'm sorry but I confirm again that " my house is not a hotel " and if I do not notice with a text message of your arrival you will have to wait for the caretaker will open the apartment . These are my rules . If you were good you could not book another apartment with different rules . Fortunately, you're the only guest who was not able to communicate with me..perchè as laws by the reviews of other guests, I say ALWAYS promptly .
have a good day
